When I hung the headers on my warmed up 390 headed to the muff shop, got pulled over. He followed me to the shop just to make sure. Wish I would have put Magnaflows on it instead of the Flows tho... I thought those 390 emblems were leaning the wrong way, easy fix tho.
@19baitmaster51 I've heard straight through mufflers on these engines and they can sound like shit. I went with flowmaster because they sound good and don't flow as bad as people say they do, or people with built up engines wouldn't be using them.
Yea I know they go the other way now but I see it as they go the way I have them because they are on a truck now instead of a car lol
Nice old 390 emblems they look like there off A Galaxy. Sounds pretty cool like that :D Makes me want to run an X pipe after my headers and run unmuffled stacks on mine.
I bet that thing goes good in the snow.

@KeepItRoostin658 i've never had it in the snow (roads weren't snowy in this vid) but i have no doubt it'd do just fine

Not sayin the Flows are bad, just that they are louder. Have the Flows on my 5.4, much better sound in my IMHO.

@19baitmaster51 they sound great on both of my trucks. I'll have to borrow my friends camera again and take some more vids.

I really need headers on my dads '76 F250. I think i better take off the stock 2 barrel carb and swap in a 4 bbl before i do that.

@Hotrodx199 I'd do both at the same time. If you buy an aftermarket intake buy the edelbrock performer rpm. carb should be 600-650

not a bad truck...390's are good motors...but your emblems on the lower front fenders are on the wrong side

@390merc65 they go the other way?
ndubb1 11 months ago
@ndubb1 yeah,.but its no biggie
390merc65 11 months ago
@390merc65 it'd make sense for them to go the way i have them so that's weird that they'd be the other way.
ndubb1 11 months ago
@ndubb1 well its no biggie..but they go with the top leaning towards the front of the vehicle...google a 66 428 galaxie and you will see how they go
